A spot of tea Mum? Chalk it up to my being American, but I auto think British and tea. I have visited and tea’d myself silly at the most improper times (per British standards) and loved it! It is something so magically British we can only hope to capture. When I saw this pistol belt bag I immediately thought of the UK. Surely there’s a place or pocket in this bag to stash some tea! Then I hear the Queen was getting an Ipad… I was thinking she just might need a pistol belt bag to store her Ipad and tea! She can text me now ;) It’s all cool!

For the rest of us…They call this a pistol belt bag – I just call it crazy chic! It’s crafted in a vintage military style, but absolutely brand new. I thought the bag was a perfect pairing for a painted Union Jack with just a bit of grunge and a lot of vintage. I’m loving the look!

The black cotton canvas bag has the “pistol belt” with a double line of grommets completely around the top for that chic military look. The long strap (detachable and adjustable!) continues that look with a single line of grommets.

I use professional grade Acrylic Leather Paint that has a "flex additive" to prevent cracking and peeling. Each coat takes 24 hours to "cure," so although very time consuming, I usually have many different purses and shoes going at the same time.

In addition, each item is thoroughly prepped to accept the paint. I have learned through years of trial and error that varying leathers, suedes and fabrics take different processes. If soiled, you can simply wipe the art clean with a damp cloth. Never a worry! It’s simply meant to be enjoyed.
